A tribute song to the unofficial mayor of Portsmouth New Hampshire. If you're in town, stop by The Press Room and say "hi".
lyrics
Master of music
King of the blues
Shakespearian insults
A well-rounded dude
Legend says he’s six foot…
You start off watching a TV show. You end up with a song.
lyrics
Another night alone, sitting with myself
Thinking of how it used to be
I try to distract myself
Flipping through channels on TV
I come upon you there
Staring back at…
It's tough making money in the music biz. Inspired by the song "Cake By The Ocean".

A love song about fate.
Tim - guitar and vocal.
Before I knew you I felt the gravity
Something beyond control I knew was pulling me
Binding us together in ways I couldn’t see
And i would come to know there was only you for me (you for…

Thanks, Gary. All of the credit for the keys (and the awesome stick bass in the verses) goes to Clarke McMurray. He killed it. This song has an odd feature where I'm playing bass in the choruses and Clarke is playing stick in the verses.
Ah. Love that chord progression. I await an album full of these songs. Then again, that would likely make the world would fly off its axis.
Seriously, man, first rate all the way.
The cover I did off Uglifruit's 2010 RPM submission. The drums are a pair of hotrod sticks, that I made, hitting my keyboard table. The "kick drum is the stick hitting the pop screen while the mic was on.
I still need to fade...
Inspired by the book Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks. An earworm (or brainworm as Sacks espouses) is that catchy melody that sticks in your brain that you just can't shake.
This is a cover of a song by Sister Savage, from her kickin' 2010 RPM Challenge album, Juped 2k10. It also introduces the genre of acoustic crossdressed spacecheese (these damn kids today with their flying cars and their hyperspecialized genres…
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode

Awaiting the all Letter Seventeen all-acoustic singer/songwriter album.
Love this one. Because let's face it, I don't need to be a millionaire; I'd settle on being a thousandaire.
This weird thing is my favorite. :)
Like this really cool track

You need help. But please please please don't ever seek it.

Dude, your vocals are spot on. Really impressed.
Ah, love that Andy Samford lead guitar. Crazy good as always.
Yes. I am home.

Haunting. Beautiful.
Impressive. I like what you did with the drum work and the guitar is really pretty.
This is about 24 kinds of cool. Well done.
Wow. Just wow. This just draws me in and mesmerizes me.
Oh yeah! Great bit of moodiness and I really dig the instrumental breaks.
Nice job. I really like the guitar work.
Absolutely wonderful job, Keith. Your version is better than mine. And thanks for adding the much-need bridge lyrics!
The first 17 seconds of this song is everything I want to do when I make music.
Stunning. Just absolutely beautiful. Wonderful work, Richard.
OH MY! This is SO MUCH FUN! You took a great song and put a tremendous spin on it. Well done!
Absolutely lovely. Wonderful guitar work.
I'm really digging the "bop bop bop". All great pop songs should have hand claps and "bop bop bop"!
